Optimization Of The Electronic And Optical Properties Of Tio2 For Clean Fuel Production by Fadlallah, Mohamed

“…However, the long-standing bottleneck is the fact that TiO2 is a wide band gap semiconductor, limiting its activation to the deep-blue and ultraviolet spectral region that contains but a small fraction (5%) of the incident solar energy. …”

The Impact of Pamam Dendrimers on Her2-Positive Breast Cancer and the Early Stages of Embryogenesis by Kheraldine, Hadeel

“…PAMAMs exhibited significant anti-cancer effects that were more pronounced with cationic (-NH2) dendrimers, compared to neutral (-OH) or anionic (-COOH) and were greater in cationic G6 compared to cationic G4. Cationic G6 PAMAMs significantly decreased the viability of HER2-positive breast cancer cell lines down to 5.1% in SK-BR3 and to 5.7% in ZR-75 cells (p<0.001), in a dose and time-dependent fashion. …”

Plasma volume variations in response to high intensity interval training in obese women: The influential role of menopausal status and age by Jabbour, Georges

“…For all women pre- and post-HIIT comparisons revealed significant differences in the extent of PV reduction at all two points (P < 0.01). Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that age was a significant contributor to the decreases in plasma volume (PV) observed both after warm-up and following the supramaximal cycling test - SCT (r = 0.44 and r = 0.57). …”

Experimental results and modelling of corrosion-damaged concrete beams strengthened with externally-bonded composites by Elghazy M.

“…The FE models were able to capture the non-linear behavior of the strengthened beams. The interfacial bond stress-slip models at the fabric/matrix and composite/concrete interfaces and the number of composite layers had the most significant impact on the predicted response of the strengthened beams whereas the corrosion level, modeled as a reduction in the steel reinforcement cross-section, showed a slight effect on their performance. …”

Insights Into the Role of CircRNAs: Biogenesis, Characterization, Functional, and Clinical Impact in Human Malignancies by Nisar, Sabah

“…Because of the structural stability, high expression, availability of microRNA (miRNA) binding sites and tissue-specific expression, circRNAs have become hot topic of research in RNA biology. Compared to the linear RNA, circRNAs are produced differentially by backsplicing exons or lariat introns from a pre-messenger RNA (mRNA) forming a covalently closed loop structure missing 3′ poly-(A) tail or 5′ cap, rendering them immune to exonuclease-mediated degradation. …”

Allelopathic effects of the invasive Prosopis juliflora (sw.) Dc. On seed germination of selected Qatari native plant species by Bibi, Shazia

“…About 10% of significant reduction was exerted on seed germination of Prosopis cineraria at higher concentrations of 6 mgml− 1 and 8 mgml− 1 while the seed radical length was significantly reduced starting at lowest concentration (2 mgml− 1) and with greater reduction at higher concentrations. The seed germination and seed radical length of Sueda aegyptica were significantly decreased with increased concentration of crude water extract of P. juliflora. …”
